Pico's Powers Part 1

She knew she was always a little different, and that set her apart from the others.

When she was younger she found that she could do thing others couldn’t, move things with her mind. It scared her at first, she thought herself a freak, an outcast. One moment she’d be sitting across the room wishing she didn’t have to get up to answer the phone, the next moment the phone was in her hand. From that time on she practiced her power in private, moving things around the room, tidying up the house when her parents weren’t home.

When she was older she extended her power from objects to people. As a salsa she had to be careful, not everyone loved the mix of fresh veggies with a hint of lime. But if she really wanted something she went for it. Careful never to reveal the true strength of her abilities. She soon began to see herself as kind of a super hero. Why else would she have these powers? She must use them for good right?

So when Chipotle was looking for a new location in Seattle she had used her powers to pull the restaurant from the Sodo District back toward Pike Street, downtown, so that more people could enjoy the fantastically fresh ingredients only Chipotle had to offer. It was hard at first, contractors showing up to the old location only to be “moved” to the new one to begin work on the new restaurant, but eventually everything fell into place and the opening day was only a week or so away.

Though that had drained her she had one more thing she had to move. Through the grapevine she had heard that El B was considering postponing his weekly order from Chipotle. Aghast and appalled she used all of her strength to move the order day to Thursday instead of the usual Friday. She passed out from exertion before seeing the result of her endless hours of practicing her abilities….had it worked?? Will Chipotle be able to come through??? Time will only tell….
